In the reaction mechanism‚ a carboxylic acid‚ m-toluic acid is used to synthesize N‚N-diethyl-m-toluamide‚ also know as DEET‚ through a nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction. The reaction begins by first converting the m-toluic carboxylic acid into an acyl chlorosulfite through a reaction using thionyl chloride. The carboxylic acid is converted into an acyl chloride because the acyl chloride is more reactive. In this step‚ hydrochloric acid is formed from a hydrogen on the carboxylic acid and a

nanoparticles have unique properties which help in molecular diagnostics‚ in therapies‚ as well as in devices that are used in several medical procedures. The major methods used for silver nanoparticle synthesis are the physical and chemical methods. The problem with the chemical and physical methods is that the synthesis is expensive and can also have toxic substances absorbed onto them. To overcome this‚ the biological method provides a feasible alternative. The major biological systems involved in this are

Objective: The objective of this lab is to determine and analyze the many chemical qualities of copper ‚ by using many solutions that enable copper to undergo chemical changes that will take copper from a metal back to its original state. This is done using cooper‚ Concentrated HNO3‚ 6 M NaOH ‚ Bunsen burner‚ 6 M H2SO4‚ Mg ribbon‚ and two test tubes. The techniques used in this lab which is cleaning glassware‚ disposing of chemicals ‚ measuring mass ‚ centrifugation ‚ venting gases‚ and test tube

Acetylsalicylic acid is the active pharmaceutical ingredient in aspirin and can be synthesized by the esterification reaction of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride in the presence of an acid catalyst. An esterification reaction is when an acid is converted into an ester by combining with an alcohol and removing a water molecule. When heating the salicylic acid mixture in the warm water bath‚ the mixture should be removed from the bath within 8 minutes‚ to reduce the chance of the acetylsalicylic

Choosing change intervention tools: Change is not primarily about riding the new waves; it certainly is about taking risks‚ Risk taking comes with being a leader but learn to lever change interventions into the border directions of the organization in order to increase the effectiveness of change. - Levels & depth of change intervention While change can be effected at various levels‚ not all type of intervention guarantee the longevity of change for the organization. However‚ its

Figure 6: Imatinib The first imatinib drug synthesis was done by Zimmermann (figure 7) in 1993‚ he used a chain of the reaction to reach to imatinib but the important part is that both guanidinium nitrate 7 and aminopyrimidine 8 are precipitated from the respective reaction mixtures by the addition of Figure 7: imatinib synthesis by Zimmermann insolubilizing solvents‚ so we got a condensation reaction between guanidinium salt 7 with enone “9” to form the aminopyrimidine “8” then “8” is

crystals 18.287g Claim: Based on my calculations‚ the theoretical yield of Aluminum was 18.160g‚ and the actual yield was 18.287g. This gives a percent yield of 100.699%. Evidence/ Reasoning: By looking at the overall reaction involved in the lab‚ we can see that two moles of Aluminum are needed to react in the reaction‚ producing 2 moles of KAl(SO4)2 ·12H2O. This lets us know that however many moles of Aluminum there are in the original sample will be equal to

report discussing the purity of my aspirin sample I produced. When I carried out the experiment to produce an aspirin sample I had to take a few results I had gained from carrying out the experiment later used these to work out the experimental error and percentage % yield. The results I used where the published value of what temperature pure aspirin melts at‚ the temperature my aspirin sample melted at‚ the weight of pure aspirin and the weight of impure aspirin. Firstly I worked out the experimental
